San Damiano welcomes Jesse Manibusan to San Damiano!  Jesse is a composer and singer/songwriter known for his liturgical compositions  “Open My Eyes,” Bread of Heaven,” ” Malo Malo, Thanks Be to God,”and many others.  But he is much more:  storyteller, humorist, catechist, evangelizer, and encourager. Working with any and every age group, Jesse has that knack to build instant rapport, connect to his audience, and create life-giving memories that help deepen faith and cultivate the joy that inspires service, sacrifice and the celebration of life.
